Hajduk Split Aim to Sign Marin Šotiček Permanently from Basel
Hajduk Split are reportedly planning to secure Marin Šotiček’s permanent transfer from Basel as the Croatian club looks to keep the winger beyond his current loan spell.
According to Sportske Novosti, signing Šotiček on a permanent basis has become a key task for Hajduk’s management. The club are said to want to complete the deal as soon as possible, with a purchase option of €1.8 million currently included in the agreement.
What It Means
Hajduk’s reported intention to act quickly suggests that the club see Šotiček as a player worth keeping for the longer term. Exercising the purchase option would allow them to retain his services without having to negotiate an entirely new transfer fee with Basel, provided the existing terms remain unchanged.
The €1.8 million clause also gives Hajduk a defined figure to work with as they consider their next move.
Background
Šotiček is currently playing for Hajduk on loan from Swiss side Basel. The arrangement includes an option to make the move permanent, giving the Croatian club a potential route to secure his future.
The report from Sportske Novosti indicates that Hajduk’s leadership wants to prioritise the transfer, although the club have not yet officially announced a permanent agreement.
What Happens Next
Hajduk will need to decide whether to activate the €1.8 million purchase option and finalise the necessary arrangements with Basel.
For now, the reported plan points towards a possible permanent stay in Split, but no completed transfer has been officially confirmed. Further developments should clarify whether Hajduk can turn their interest into a long-term deal.
